Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 21, 1952.

The arms are supposed to be canting, form Fisch-Bach or fish-river.

The town did not use any arms prior to 1952, but used a seal of a fisherman between two trees from 1826-1938, and only a fisherman between 1938 and 1952.

Siegel von Fischach

The municipal stamp shown in 1892

The colours of the arms were taken from the arms of the 14th century arms of the Lords of Fischach.

Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
